*You can buy pumpkin spice, but if you don't have it on hand you can make your own.

Pumpkin Spice

2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp ground cloves

Mix together in a small container with a lid, store in a dry place. This makes approximately 4.5 tsp of Pumpkin Spice mix.

Since the bread recipe only calls for one- cup of pumpkin, but the can is nearly two, I found this recipe for Pumpkin Chip Cookies that are delicious and easy. The original recipe makes 60 cookies, but I cut the recipe down to 30 cookies (except I used a whole egg - it will tell you to use half an egg?) which was perfect for the last 7 oz, of pumpkin.)

Oops! I had this post starred to come back and comment, but forgot to return. I love the afghan!! The colors are fantastic! Could you please share more details about it? Yarn, pattern, etc.? Variegated or lots of ends to weave in?
